[How To Hide Ip And Encryt Data Easily?]

I connect to Internet through Ethernet.

One of my partner uses Windows XP build-in Internet sharing function to share the Internet to all of us.

So, all my connections must route to his computer before go to the Internet.

I don't know why he can tell what URL I have visited.

May be his computer has some program to record all outgoing traffic ?

[How To Hide Ip And Encryt Data Easily?]

Is there an easy way to hide my ip address and encrypt data at the same time?

I find that even I use anonymous proxy server, my neighbors can still figure out what website I have visited !!!

The problem is that the connection between my computer and the proxy server is not anonymous and not secure.

Is there an easy (and free) solution ?

Thanks.
